I did another track for my Temporal Scream-project! In the visuals I also used a cool lighting technique for Blender 3D I recently learned: youtu.be/K3L_ovLrmms

Great character indeed. Robin Lord Taylords version in Gotham is my favourite one.

I'd love to see a Joker/Harley movie with Margot Robbie and Cameron Monaghan... Cameron was terrifying as a proto-joker in Gotham.

Brilliant :-D I also really love the Silence of the Lambs and Mandalorian ones!

Comic. Thought Process While Reading A Big Number: 54,000,000,000,000,000,000,0000,0000,054,000"000,00c2ef46 [comments progress along the line, approximately every 3 digits] (1) 54! Great! I know that number. Solid start. (2) Oh, a comma and some zeros. Cool. Must be at least 54 thousand. (3) A second comma! I wonder if we’re talking population or money. (4) Yikes! If this is money, it’s a *lot* of money. (5) Why am I reading this? Whatever this number is, I’m not going to be able to visualize it. (6) All right, either someone made a unit conversion error or this is one of those incomprehensible astronomy numbers. (7) [4 zeroes between commas instead of 3]] Oh no. Is this a misplaced comma or an extra zero? I guess we’ll see if the next group has two zeros or three. If it’s two, we can at least hope the digits are right. (8) [4 zeroes between commas] Oh *no*. (9) [repeat of the digits 54] What is happening. (10) [a quotation mark in place of comma] Someone messed up real bad. (11) [final digits are c2ef46, cut off] Someone messed up real bad and I hope it wasn’t me.

's Ariane launchers... It's called Songs For Ariane and this track and the CGI I did for it in Blender 3D is specifically for the very first one, the Ariane 1! Hope you'll enjoy it! youtu.be/WlK3Iuau4D8

Really enjoyed the new Marvel movie Thunderbolts. Funny yet with a strong emotional base and a good story as well as a great cast. Felt like a return to early Iron Man and Thor.

I turned typewriter sounds into the backdrop for my saddest song to date, then filmed six typewriters and hung an action camera from my loft hatch to make this video

It’s a gorgeous rocket!

Beautiful launch!

I’m talking more generally with the source being ai in this case (might as well be exploiting music students to do music for free).

Yes - but you can't fight that by attacking the source... It would be like trying to get the record labels to drop their one hit wonders, and trying to get shops to only sell specific music. It would be nice if it'd worked. Give people better access to live music. Make it personal.

I'm not sure that is the point of the whole problem - results can always be improved and I'd even say that the current results are subjectively better than what a lot of people create. In my opinion it's more important that consumers learn to appreciate the creation process and creator more.

Ariane 6 lifts off from Europe's Spaceport for the second time.
